Wi-Fi HaLow: Redefining Connectivity with a 3 Kilometer Range
The California-based startup, Morse Micro, has achieved a groundbreaking feat that will redefine technological boundaries: its engineers have successfully transmitted a video call over Wi-Fi spanning a distance of... 3 kilometers! Dubbed "HaLow," this variant of conventional Wi-Fi harnesses low frequencies to deliver unparalleled range and interference resistance.
During a live demonstration in the streets of San Francisco, Morse Micro astounded onlookers by maintaining a smooth video connection between two points separated by 3 kilometers, despite the presence of buildings and other sources of electromagnetic interference. Although the data rate decreases with distance (11 Mbps at 500 meters, 1 Mbps at 3 kilometers), it remains more than sufficient for communication purposes.
Approved in 2016 but underutilized until now, the "HaLow" standard paves the way for numerous innovations, as highlighted by Michael De Nil, CEO of Morse Micro: "Our HaLow Wi-Fi chips overcome the limitations of conventional Wi-Fi, offering a range 10 times greater and exceptional resilience to interference."
This breakthrough promises a confident outlook for the widespread deployment of connected devices in both urban and rural areas. Wi-Fi HaLow notably enables real-time video surveillance of critical infrastructures such as airports or industrial sites. Precision agriculture could also benefit from this next-generation Wi-Fi for remotely controlling farm equipment.
Thanks to the efforts of Morse Micro, the next revolution in the Internet of Things is underway. And this time, goodbye to dead zones!
